New York, NY(AP)-
In a rare and strange twist of events, the New York Mets and Jeff Wilpon have announced plans today to stay in the teams current venue Shea Stadium through 2009 because of a major disagreement between the club and its current concession supplier which would supply the new multi million dollar Citi Field which which was scheduled to open for the 2009 season.
The Wilpons made this dramatic announcement today after it was discovered there has been an ongoing dispute with their supplier Aramark over the costs of toilet paper and urinal deodorizer blocks used in restrooms at the facilities. It seems the Wilpons were not happy with the cost they were getting from Aramark, and with Citi Field expected to have twice as many bathrooms as Shea Stadium the Wilpons decided it would be best for the Mets to stay at Shea until the matter is resolved.
The Mets and Wilpon have made no further information available but have announced a press conference for 1:00 PM tomorrow.http://www.cambridgenow.ca/images/ne...0giflatest.gif
